NHL 22 - To the Deadline and beyond

[rikwebb]

I can't remember the last time there was a significant improvement in gameplay it's mainly roster update. In fact, the NHL games have been poor for over a decade IMO. The one franchises that EA Sports seems to really put effort into are FIFA and Madden.

Thats why they fob it off to the Vancouver studio, same studio as the UFC games, all the non important franchises go there

Cant help but laugh

Inbefore Kane joins Colorado or Tampa.

Is Chicago going to eat all the salary and send a few more picks to go towards the tank as part of the deal?

HUGE gamble on going Tage a 7 year 7.1 million per deal. 1 good year makes owners and gm's stupid.

Happy to see Otters resigned, was expecting something longer than 3 years though. Just hope we can get Robinson resigned too soon

That's not gonna age well.

he'll be around ovechkin's age by the time his contract has ended. but he aint gonna be no ovechkin.

Seems like teams just don’t give a fuck anymore when it comes to those deals. On the other hand they know that they won’t get the deal done if they don’t give in to those crazy demands. It’s tough. I guess they will rely on buyouts and trading away assets to get rid of those contracts later down the road.

The „premature“ deals for someone like Hughes and Tage are just calculated risks, if it pays off and they develop like desired then those deals will be steals early and especially later with rising cap.
